I think I will miss maybe 5 of the cigarettes I smoke a day. The first one in the morning, and of course the one after every meal. And the last one I smoke at night. One good thing is we do not smoke in the house and it is getting darn inconvenient and COLD here in WNY to go out on the porch. We can do this Man in Blue!

I thought so too but really there not the ones I missed most now. It was actually easy to get by them. Its the social smoking that gets me now, like when I'm out have a few drinks with friends etc...

But once you make it through the first 2-3 days, the nicotine withdraw is done, the rest is just force of habit. Use the Epsom salt, it made the withdraw process faster. Also make a good plan to keep yourselves busy those 2-3 days. If I was not constiently doing something, I made sure my butt was sleeping... Get through those first couple days however possible.

I had it pretty easy, since the wife and kids packed there backs and left for the weekend. I'm sure if they stayed I would have used anything they said or did as an excuse to get pissed off and go smoke.

Bren, I know you got family there that might make it hard for you. If my family didnt leave I was gonna go rent a hotel room for myself for the weekend. Something nice and peaceful with a hot tub, steam room and fireplace. Something like that might be nice for you too...

WOW! Would that not be nice. But alas, I would get bored and I know I am going to have to be real busy. Good time to paint and rewallpaper my living room or something. No one smokes inside so I do not think they will bother me. And they are big guys so I can smack them when I feel like I have too!!!!!!!!! This old girl is getting psyched!! How about you "man in blue".......are we on?
note: got myself the epsom salts and cinnamon sticks. Need GUM!

ya know what? I actually am smoking less and not trying too. Yesterday they really started tasting AWFUL! I mean I did not even bother with the last one........maybe I got a stale pack? Hopefully!!
I was reading somewhere that as with any other addiction we should write a "Dear John" letter to our cigs. Hey...I'll try anything!
I was up to over a pack a day! How about you Man in Blue? (hey...I'm a poet!).
